Here's the prize money payout for each golfer at the 2019 3M Open

For Matthew Wolff, who eagled the par-5 18th hole to close out a seven-under 65 at TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minn., to claim a one-stroke victory in the inaugural 3M Open, it was, without exaggeration, a life-altering moment. The 20-year-old is only six weeks removed from winning the NCAA individual title to cap a standout sophomore year at Oklahoma State, one that convinced him the time was right to turn professional. And while certainly the California native was confident in his game, a PGA Tour victory in just his third start as a professional is something that's happened more quickly than most observers realistically anticipated (except, of course, if that observer was Wolff himself).
This is the point in any story about nascent tour pros where you write that their first tour win isn’t about the money they’d be earning, but everything else: the two-year exemption on the PGA Tour, invites to the Masters, the PGA Championship and the Players, etc. But in all honesty, for Wolff, the payday for winning is a REALLY BIG deal as well. The tournament’s overall purse is $6.4 million, and Wolff just grabbed $1.152 million. Considering that Wolff was just wrapping up spring semester finals eight weeks ago, that kind of money is hard to ignore.
As for the rest of the field, here is the prize money payout for everybody who made the cut in Minnesota.
